1985 Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen 280GE SWB

Rarely seen in green and a detailed history file...This great example was delivered new on the 24th September 1985 to Springfield Firearms Ltd. of Truro by local Mercedes-Benz main dealer Cathedral Motor Company. The car was then transferred into the ownership of a director of Springfield Firearms, from whom our vendor bought it. Presented to auction with a history file that includes some 26 MOTs, that confirm the mileage of 69,750, a raft of receipts, service book, handbooks, unopened First Aid Box and a selection of tax discs. Our vendor, a member of the G-Wagen Owner's Association, as was the previous owner, has just completed a programme of refreshment to the tune of £2,363.12 by Mercedes specialists Gratts of Manchester. Previous works include the fitting of a new radiator, water pump, double skinning the petrol tank, a new rear bumper and front windscreen.

With an MOT until August 2017 this petrol, short wheelbase G-Wagon is a true rival to the Defender whilst providing the driver with considerably more luxury and a better driving experience.
